liam and noel by michael robert williams

Liam with the pianist of the Belmond Orient Express

especially striking, knowing he's only got liam's voice in his monitors, are the moments he's got his head a little thrown back, staring at nothing and listening to liam sing with the face of a man who's seeing god.

in the few videos i actually watch in full, there are these specific points where he reliably does it and it's invariably when liam's voice is at his most powerful/beautiful (i met my maker in d'you know what i mean, now that you're mine in slide away, some might say in, well, some might say) and sometimes he'll get so into it he sings along with liam and that's just my favorite thing.

(meanwhile liam is focused like he's spent the last sixteen years imagining what he'd do if he got another shot and by god he's going to prove he's worthy of it and ten more albums too.
